when d called from work to see what i was up to (catching some fluff tv, finding something to wear to socialize in tonight, and getting ready to dye my hair and read a stack of magazines) i felt a bit guilty so also added mowed lawn, fought crowds at the local greenhouses. (he laughed -- i think at my thinking i have to qualify my day tho it could have been the postage size mowing task ;) i housed my impatients in newly sourced houses and cleared what seemed like a thousand sticks off the lawn (saw great twig structures at the greenhouses i'm going to attempt to recreate with them) i'm excited at the growing the tres petit jardin is doing. (my lettuce rows are heroically gaining on the weeds every day) come over and talk to them if you have time. they could use the help

introducing

I am at work on my third book and I fit writing into the moments I am not at the job I love at our local university or hanging out with family and friends (disclosure: if you are my family and friends and catch me staring off into space, i may be writing the next scene while we hang out ;) I share home with my computer-building husband, our three highly entertaining sons, and a very emotionally needy cat.
